“Humbled by condolence messages on mom’s passing, thankful to all. Grateful to the honourable PM for this amazing gesture to take out time and express warm feelings for me and my late parents. These comforting words will stay with me forever”. The 54-year-old actor also posted the letter sent by the Prime Minister.
Akshay Kumar announced the loss of his mother on social media on September 8. She was rushed to Mumbai’s Hiranandani Hospital, where she was admitted to the intensive care unit. In an Instagram post, the actor expressed his sorrow for his mother. He wrote a heart-felt message saying, “She was my core. And today I feel an unbearable pain at the very core of my existence. My maa Smt Aruna Bhatia peacefully left this world today morning and got reunited with my dad in the other world. I respect your prayers as I and my family go through this period.”
On his birthday on September 9, Akshay Kumar penned a letter to his mother. He remembered her and wrote, “Would have never liked it this way but I am sure mom is singing Happy Birthday to me from right up there! Thanks to each one of you for your condolences and wishes alike. Life goes on.”
Akshay Kumar returned to Mumbai from London earlier this month to stay with his ill mother, who was hospitalized. The actor returned to London on Saturday to continue his job obligations. His wife Twinkle Khanna, son Aarav, and daughter Nitara accompanied him to London.
